For the first time in history, on 23th September, North Korea revealed its General Satellite Control Center to overseas media today, along with its announcement that a launch to send rockets and satellites is imminent.

The North is planning another satellite launch in October, re-igniting fears that it is really testing a system to deliver nuclear weapons.

He had taken over from his father, who died in December 2011, and was trying to make a mark as the leader of a country that had defied years of global pressure and sanctions in pursuit of missile and nuclear weapons programs.

Still, the North’s pursuit of long-range rocket technology should be taken seriously because of potential capabilities it might acquire in the future, Pinkston added.

North Korea is going to experience the most hard time ever to decide whether to precede a missile launch with the cooperative mood between Republic of Korea and China, while expecting the 70th anniversary of the founding of its ruling party.

No signal reception has occurred seen beginning with the crude-looking 100-kg (220-pound) piece of most excellent metallic which the North said appeared to be placed along with video cameras to bring illustrations and communicate these items here we are at Pyongyang.

“Our satellite launch is a work of peace in accordance with the state’s plans for scientific and technological developments for both economic growth and improvement of the people’s lives, and no one has the right to meddle in this plan”, said www.dprktoday.com, one of the North’s propaganda sites for outside online users.

While many observers were impressed that Pyongyang managed to put an object into orbit in 2012, German aerospace engineer Markus Schiller said in a 2013 analysis that the mission was a “low performance” event and “not a game changer”.

“Nothing that has happened in the past years has changed my assessment”, Mr Schiller told Reuters, despite further short-range missile launches by Pyongyang using existing technology.

“Preparations for the Unha-3, and whatever new space launch vehicle they might roll out, will be observable well in advance of a launch”, said Daniel Pinkston, a visiting fellow at Babes-Bolyai University in Romania.

“It should be clear how important these capabilities are to the leadership because they are expensive and hard to acquire”, he said.
